Hundreds of people have joined a 'pro-Palestinian' march through Edinburgh once again today.
They're calling for politicians to urge Israel and Palestine to agree to an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
The countries are locked in conflict following the Hamas attacks on southern Israel on October 7 in which about 1,200 people were killed and more than 240 kidnapped before Israel retaliated with months of attacks on the Gaza Strip, killing and wounding thousands.
Today's protests fell after International Women’s Day, with protest organisers calling on demonstrators to “stand in solidarity with Palestinian women”.
